I'm not taking the homer view. Todays game will be played out many more times this year and the Bills will probably lose a few.
Bills are short a good QB, WR's, CB's, OL...you get the picture. We can all see it.
McDermott, Beane and Co. made moves to load up the next draft. They knew we were short and only so much could be done in year 1.
Long term planning for long term gain.
Taylor was his usual self. Some good throws and runs. Many missed throws. The Pass D was torched with the lack of depth at CB. Tampa on paper has a better roster. And yet..
Bills ALWAYS lost these games over the last 17 years. McDermott made a blunder prior to the half ( or Taylor did ) but they stayed close and pulled a surprise turnover out to win after getting rolled 21-3 over the previous 2 quarters.
Keeping it real. It's not this year. It's 2018 and beyond. Anything the Bills give us this year is a bonus and the up and down Raiders come here next Sunday. This team plays hard and talent will eventually improve ( I hope ) and make things a bit better.
The 3-4 win team most envisioned doesn't exist. We can't change our outlook and complain now that it looks tough to win 10-11 this with this roster. Insanity.
Keeping it real. No more one year band-aids ala Russ Brandon to sell tickets. The football guys they have now seem to be doing a good job with what they have. 2018 draft is the main plan, obviously.
Thanks for being 4-2. This isn't Rex, Marrone, Mularkey or Jauron 4-2. This is different.
Go Bills ! Doing it right.
